Postgraduate Program Report

On behalf of the Postgraduate Program we would like to extend a warm welcome to the incoming PGY1 residents. The new academic year is off to a great start.

Important reminders:

At the beginning of the new academic year, we would like to take some time to remind you of an essential component of the program, Field Notes. Field notes can be generated by either a faculty member or resident. A resident should have at least three documented field notes per week during core family medicine training to graduate. Residents are also encouraged to complete field notes during off-service rotations. If you would like a refresher on how to fill in a field note, please review our Entering a Field Note series through Youtube. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us by email.
